VIPER Technical Manual Getting started


Getting started Depending on the development kit purchased, a Quickstart Manual is provided for Windows CE, embedded Linux or VxWorks to enable users to set-up and start using the board. Please read the relevant manual and follow the steps defining the set-up of the board. Once you have completed this task you will have a working VIPER system and can start adding further peripherals enabling development to begin.

This section provides a guide to setting up and using of some of the features of the VIPER. For more detailed information on any aspect of the board see 242HDetailed hardware description, page 243H18.

Using the VIPER

Using the CompactFLASH™ socket The VIPER is fitted with a Type I/II CompactFLASH socket mounted on the topside of the board. The socket is connected to Slot 0 of the PXA255 PC card interface. It supports 3.3V Type I and II CompactFLASH cards for both memory and IO. The VIPER supports hot swap changeover of the cards and notification of card insertion.

RedBoot supports ATA type CompactFlash cards. Files can be read providing the card is formatted with an EXT2 file system. Eboot cannot boot from CompactFlash.

5V CompactFLASH is not supported.

The CompactFLASH card can only be inserted one way into the socket. The correct orientation is for the top of the card, i.e. with the normal printed side face down to the PCB.

Using the serial interfaces (RS232/422/485) The five serial port interfaces on the VIPER are fully 16550 compatible. Connection to the serial ports is made via a 40-way boxed header. The pin assignment of this header has been arranged to enable 9-way IDC D-Sub plugs to be connected directly to the cable. See the section 38HPL4 – COMS ports, page 244H89, for pin assignment and connector details.

A suitable cable for COM1 is provided as part of the development kit. The D-Sub connector on this cable is compatible with the standard 9-way connector on a desktop computer.

COM4 (RS232) and COM5 (RS422/485) are not available on the standard VIPER-Lite configuration. Eurotech Ltd can provide custom configurations (subject to a minimum order quantity) for the VIPER-Lite populated with this feature. Please contact our Sales team (see 245HAppendix A – Contacting Eurotech, page 246H101) to discuss your requirements.

PXA255 processor The PXA255 is a low power ARM (version 5TE) instruction set compliant RISC processor. The PXA255 does not include a floating-point unit. The device does, however, contain a DSP co-processor to enhance multimedia applications.

The VIPER is fitted with a 400MHz PXA255 variant and the VIPER-Lite is fitted with a 200MHz PXA255 variant. The clock source for these is a 3.6864 MHz clock, which generates all the high-speed clocks within the device. The default run mode frequency is 400MHz for the VIPER and 200MHz for the VIPER-Lite. Currently embedded Linux and VxWorks supports changing the operating frequency and Windows CE will provide support shortly. Please refer to the relevant operating system technical manual to select an alternative operating frequency.

The processor has two supply inputs: I/O and core generated on the VIPER from the main +5V supply input. The I/O supply is powered from +3.3V, and the core is powered from a +1.06 to +1.3V adjustable supply. See the section 280HProcessor power management, page 281H81, for operation details.

The PXA255 has an integrated memory and CompactFlash controller with 100 MHz memory bus, 32KB data and 32KB instruction caches and 2KB mini data cache for streaming data.

The PXA255 provides up to 85 GPIO pins, many of which have been configured for alternative functions like the AC’97 and PC card/CompactFLASH interfaces. Details of these pin configurations are provided in the section 282HPXA255 GPIO pin assignments, page 283H22.

The PXA255 also has the following features that can be used on the VIPER:

• Peripheral Control Module: - 16 channel configurable DMA controller (for internal use only). - Integrated LCD controller with unique DMA for fast colour screen support. - Serial ports including AC’97, 3 UARTs and enhanced USB end point interface.

• System Control Module: - General-purpose interruptible I/O ports. - Real time clock. - Watchdog. - Interval timers. - Power management controller. - Interrupt controller. - Reset controller. - Two on-chip oscillators.

The PXA255 processor is packaged in a 256-pin PBGA, which is attached to the board during the assembly process.

The PXA255 processor is a low power device and does not require a heat sink for temperatures up to 70°C (85°C for the industrial variant).



PXA255 GPIO pin assignments The following table summarizes the use of the 85 PXA255 GPIO pins, their direction, alternate function and active level.

For embedded Linux the GPIO pins are setup by Redboot. Under VxWorks and Windows CE, they are setup by the OS and not by the bootloader.

Key: AF Alternate function. Dir Pin direction. Active Function active level or edge. Sleep Pin state during sleep mode (all Hi-Z states are to ‘1’ during sleep).

Real time clock There are two RTCs on the VIPER. Under embedded Linux and VxWorks the internal RTC of the PXA255 should only be used for power management events, and an external Dallas DS1338 RTC should be used to keep the time and date. Under Windows CE the time and date stamps are copied from the external RTC to the internal RTC of the PXA255, to run the RTC internally.

The accuracy of the DS1338 RTC is based on the operation of the 32.768KHz watch crystal. Its calibration tolerance is ±20ppm, which provides an accuracy of +/-1 minute per month if the board is in an ambient environment of +25°C. When the board is operated outside this temperature then the accuracy may be degraded by -0.035ppm/ °C² ±10% typical. The watch crystal’s accuracy will age by ±3ppm max in the first year, then ±1ppm max in the year after, and logarithmically decreasing in subsequent years.

The following PXA255 GPIO pins are used to emulate the I²C interface to the DS1338 RTC:

PXA255 Pin Function

GPIO84 Clock (100kHz max)

GPIO83 Data

The DS1338 RTC also contains 56 bytes of RAM, which can be used for any user data that needs to be recoverable on power-up.

To ensure the DS1338 RTC doesn’t lose track of the date and time when the 5V supply is powered-down, the onboard battery must be fitted. See the section 339HBattery backup, page 340H73, for details.

Watchdog timer The PXA255 contains an internal watchdog timer, which can be used to protect against erroneous software. Timeout periods can be adjusted from 271ns to 19 minutes 25 seconds. When a timeout occurs the board is reset. On reset the watchdog timer is disabled until enabled again by software.

For further details see the Eurotech Operating System Technical Manual and the PXA255 Developer’s Manual on the Development Kit CD.



Memory The VIPER has four types of memory fitted:

• 1MB of bootloader FLASH containing Redboot to boot embedded Linux or VxWorks, or Eboot to boot Windows CE.

• A resident FLASH disk containing the OS and application images.

• SDRAM for system memory.

• 256KB Static RAM (SRAM).

A 1MB Bottom Boot FLASH EPROM device, arranged as 512Kbit x 16, is used as the bootloader FLASH. It holds Redboot (for embedded Linux or VxWorks) or Eboot (for Windows CE), together with configuration information. When the microprocessor comes out of reset it boots the relevant bootloader from here, which in turn boots up the OS from the FLASH memory/silicon disk. Whenever the Bootloader FLASH memory is accessed the FLASH access LED illuminates.

FLASH memory/silicon disk The VIPER supports 16MB or 32MB of Intel StrataFLASH memory for the OS and application images. The FLASH memory is arranged as 64Mbit x 16-bits (16MB device) or as 128Mbit x 16-bits (32MB device) respectively.

The FLASH memory array is divided into equally sized symmetrical blocks that are 64-Kword in size. A 128Mbit device contains 128 blocks, and 256Mbit device contains 256 blocks. Flash cells within a block are organized by rows and columns. A block contains 512 rows by 128 words. The words on a row are divided into 16 eight-word groups.

The PXA255 GPIO14 pin is connected to the FLASH memory status output. This pin can be used to generate an interrupt to indicate the completion of a CFI command.

Whenever the FLASH memory is accessed the FLASH access LED illuminates.

SDRAM interface There are two memory configurations supported by the VIPER: 16MB or 64MB of SDRAM located in Bank 0. The SDRAM is configured as 4MB x 32-bits (16MB) or 16MB x 32-bits (64MB), by 2 devices with 4 internal banks of 1MB or 4MB x 16-bits.

These are surface mount devices soldered to the board and cannot be upgraded. RedBoot (embedded Linux and VxWorks) automatically detects the amount of memory fitted to the board, and configures the SDRAM controller accordingly. For Windows CE applications the SDRAM memory will always be 64MB.

The SDRAM controller supports running the memory at frequencies between 50MHz and 99.5MHz (default). This can be configured to achieve the optimum balance between power consumption and performance.

VL



Static RAM The VIPER has a 256KB SRAM device fitted, arranged as 256Kbit x 8-bits. Access to the device is on 16-bit boundaries; whereby the least significant byte is the SRAM data and the 8-bits of the most significant byte are don’t care bits. The reason for this is that the PXA255 is not designed to interface to 8-bit peripherals. This arrangement is summarized in the following data bus table:

Most Significant Byte Least Significant Byte

D15 D14 D13 D12 D11 D10 D9 D8 D7 D6 D5 D4 D3 D2 D1 D0

Don’t Care SRAM Data

The SRAM is non-volatile while the onboard battery is fitted.

CompactFLASH The CompactFLASH connector PL5 is interfaced to Slot 0 of the PXA255 PC card controller, and appears in PC card memory space socket 0.

This is a hot swappable 3.3V interface, controlled by the detection of a falling edge on GPIO32 when a CompactFLASH card has been inserted. On detection set GPIO82 to logic ‘1’ to enable the 3.3V supply to the CompactFLASH connector. The CompactFLASH (RDY/nBSY) signal interrupts on GPIO8.

Address Region name

0x28000000 – 0x2BFFFFFF Socket 0 Attribute Memory Space

0x24000000 – 0x27FFFFFF Reserved

0x20000000 – 0x23FFFFFF Socket 0 I/O Space

Many CF+ cards require a reset once they have been inserted. The CF reset must remain high (inactive) for 1ms after power has been applied to the CF socket, and then go low (active) for at least 10µs.

To reset the CompactFlash socket independently set the CF_RST bit to ’1’ in the ICR register located at offset 0x100002 from CS5 (0x14000000). To clear the CompactFlash reset write a ‘0’ to the CF_RST bit.

PC/104 interrupts The PC/104 interrupts are logically OR’ed together so that any interrupt generated on the PC/104 interface generates an interrupt input on GPIO1.

The PC/104 interrupting source can be identified by reading the PC104I1 & 2 registers (PC104I2 is not available under Windows CE as all interrupt sources are fully utilized) located at offset 0x100000 and 0x100004 respectively from CS5 (0x14000000). The registers indicate the status of the interrupt lines at the time the register is read. The relevant interrupt has its corresponding bit set to ‘1’. The PXA255 is not designed to interface to 8-bit peripherals, so only the least significant byte from the word contains the data.

PC/104 interrupts under embedded Linux and VxWorks Leave the ICR register set to its default value, so that a new interrupt causes the microprocessor PC/104 interrupt pin GPIO1 to be toggled for every new interrupt on a different PC/104 interrupt source. Ensure the GPIO1 input is set up in a level triggered mode. The retrigger interrupt function is not required for embedded Linux or VxWorks.

The following diagram gives an example of how the PC/104 interrupt on GPIO1 behaves over time when the ICR AUTO_CLR bit is set to ‘0’:

Once the VIPER microprocessor has serviced a PC/104 interrupt, clear the corresponding bit in the corresponding PC104I register by writing ‘1’ to it.

1st IRQ on IRQ7

1st IRQon IRQ15

1st IRQon IRQ12

2nd IRQ on IRQ7

GPIO1 Level

Time

1st IRQon IRQ7 serviced



PC/104 interrupts under Windows CE Write 0x2 to the ICR Register so that the first PC/104 interrupt source causes the PXA255 PC/104 interrupt pin GPIO1 to receive a low to high transition. When the first PC/104 interrupt occurs the Interrupt service routine will start polling through the PC/104 interrupt sources in the PC104I1 register. The first bit it sees set to a ‘1’, sets a semaphore to make a program run to service the corresponding interrupt.

Once this program has serviced the interrupt the interrupting source returns its interrupt output to the inactive state (‘0’) if it hasn’t requested another interrupt whilst the microprocessor serviced the last interrupt. Once this happens the corresponding bit in the PC104I1 register shall be automatically cleared. Each PC/104 board requesting an interrupt shall keep its interrupt in the active state (‘1’) until the interrupt has been serviced by the microprocessor. When there are no interrupts outstanding the level of the PC/104 interrupt on GPIO1 shall automatically return to logic ‘0’. If it is still ‘1’ then there are interrupts outstanding, which would have occurred during the servicing of the last interrupt.

To capture any interrupts that could have occurred whilst the last interrupt was serviced, the retrigger interrupt bit in the ICR register is set to ‘1’ to retrigger a low to high transition on GPIO1 to restart the interrupt polling mechanism if there are any outstanding interrupts.

The diagram below explains how the PC/104 interrupt on GPIO1 behaves over time when the ICR AUTO_CLR bit is set to ‘1’:

PC/104 IRQ9, IRQ14 and IRQ15 are not available under Windows CE as all interrupt sources are fully utilized; therefore the PC104I2 register is disabled for Windows CE.

Flat panel display support The PXA255 processor contains an integrated LCD display controller that permits 1, 2 and 4-bit grey-scale, and 8 or 16-bit colour pixels. A 256-byte palette RAM provides flexible colour mapping capabilities. The LCD display controller supports active (TFT) and passive (STN) LCD displays.

The PXA255 can drive displays with a resolution up to 800x600, but as the PXA255 has a unified memory structure, the bandwidth to the application decreases significantly. If the application makes significant use of memory, such as when video is on screen, you may also experience FIFO under-run to the LCD causing the frames rates to drop or display image disruption. Reducing the frame rate to the slowest speed possible gives the maximum bandwidth to the application. The display quality for an 800x600 resolution LCD is dependant on the compromises that can be made between the LCD refresh rate and the application. The PXA255 is best suited to 320x240 and 640x480 resolution displays.

A full explanation of the graphics controller operation can be found in the PXA255 data sheets included on the support CD.

The flat panel data and control signals are routed to PL3. See the section 343HPL3 – LCD connector, page 344H88, for pin assignment and part number details.

The VIPER-FPIF1 allows the user to easily wire-up a new panel using pin and crimp style connectors. Contact Eurotech Ltd (see 51H52H345HAppendix A – Contacting Eurotech, page 346H101) for purchasing information.

A list of proven Flat Panel displays is included on the 53HVIPER product page. Click on the Flat Panel Display Options tab for up-to-date details.

The following tables provide a cross-reference between the flat panel data signals and their function when configured for different displays.

The PXA255 cannot directly interface to 18-bit displays, as its colour palette RAM has 5 bits for red, 6 bits for green and 5 bits for blue, since the human eye can distinguish more shades of green than of red or blue.

Below is a table covering the clock signals required for passive and active type displays:

VIPER Active display signal (TFT) Passive display signal (STN)

PCLK Clock Pixel Clock

LCLK Horizontal Sync Line Clock

FCLK Vertical Sync Frame Clock

BIAS DE (Data Enable) Bias

The display signals are +3.3V compatible; the VIPER contains power control circuitry for the flat panel logic supply and backlight supply. The flat panel logic is supplied with a switched 3.3V (default) or 5V supply, see section 54HLCD Supply Voltage – LK8 on JP2, page 347H100 for details. The backlight is supplied with a switched 5V supply for the inverter.

There is no on-board protection for these switched supplies! Care must be taken during power up/down to ensure the panel is not damaged due to the input signals being incorrectly configured.



Typically the power up sequence is as follows (please check the datasheet for the particular panel in use):

1 Enable display VCC.

2 Enable flat panel interface.

3 Enable backlight.

Power down is in reverse order.

LCD backlight enable The PXA255 GPIO9 pin controls the LCD inverter supply voltage for the backlight. When GPIO9 is set to logic ‘1’, the backlight supply BLKSAFE is supplied with 5V (turned on). The BLKEN signal on PL3 is the un-buffered GPIO9 signal. See the section 348HPL3 – LCD connector, page 349H88, for PL3 pin assignment, connector and mating connector details.

If you want to use a 12V backlight inverter, then the switched 5V supply on BLKSAFE or the control signal BLKEN can be used to control an external 12V supply to the inverter.

LCD logic supply enable The PXA255 GPIO10 pin controls the supply voltage for the LCD logic. When GPIO10 is set to logic ‘1’, the LCD supply LCDSAFE is supplied with 3.3V (turned on). See the section 350HPL3 – LCD connector, page 351H88, for PL3 pin assignment, connector and mating connector details.

The LCD supply may be changed to 5V by moving the jumper position of JP2 (see section 55HLCD Supply Voltage – LK8 on JP2, page 352H100 for details). If the flat panel logic is powered from 5V, it must be compatible with 3.3V signalling. Please check the LCD panel datasheet for details.

LCD backlight brightness control The control of the backlight brightness is dependant upon the type of backlight inverter used in the display. Some inverters have a ‘DIM’ function, which uses a logic level to choose between two levels of intensity. If this is the case then GPIO16 (Alternative Function 0) is used to set this. Other inverters have an input suitable for a pulse-width modulated signal; in this case GPIO16 should be configured as PWM0 (Alternative Function 2).



STN BIAS voltage The VIPER provides a negative and a positive bias voltage for STN type displays. The negative and positive bias voltages are set to –22V and +22V respectively. Pin connections for these can be found in the section PL3 – LCD connector, page 88. Please contact Eurotech Ltd for details of other bias voltages. Contact details are provided in Appendix A – Contacting Eurotech, page 101.

Do not exceed 20mA load current.

FPIF-LVDS-TX details The FPIF-LVDS-TX enables LVDS displays to be connected to the VIPER.

The FPIF-LVDS-TX in combination with the FPIF-LVDS-RX allows the VIPER to drive a TFT or STN LCD flat panel display up to 10 meters away.

When using the FPIF-LVDS-TX, ensure the VIPER JP2 jumper is set to select 3.3V to power the LVDS transceiver. Do not select 5V as damage will occur to the LVDS transceiver.

JP1 – TX strobe selection This link selects the edge of the TX strobe.

If the jumper is fitted (default) then the TX Strobe shall be on the rising edge. If no jumper is fitted then the TX Strobe shall be on the falling edge.

JP2 – Cable power selection This link provides 3.3V or 5V (default) to the J2 and J3 connectors respectively. Please refer to the pin descriptions of these connectors below for details.

If the FPIF-LVDS-TX is to be connected directly to an LVDS display then power for the display logic may be supplied to the display. If using long LVDS cables, it is advisable to use the CABLE_POWER signal as a control signal to enable power provided externally.

Backlight power for the display should always be provided externally.

If the FPIF-LVDS-TX is used in conjunction with the FPIF-LVDS-RX to extend the VIPER video up to 10 meters, fit the jumper to either position. Ensure that a jumper is fitted as the CABLE_POWER signal of the FPIF-LVDS-TX signals to the FPIF-LVDS-RX when to enable power to the display.

JP3 – MSL selection If the FPIF-LVDS-TX is to be connected directly to an LVDS display via the Hirose connector J2, then this link selects the display’s LVDS receiver input map. Fitting or not fitting a jumper to JP3 sets J2 pin 20 (MSL) to 3.3V or GND (default) respectively.

If the MDR connector J3 is used then jumper setting of JP3 has no effect.

Please consult the manual of your LVDS display for which setting to use for a National Semiconductor DS90C383 LVDS transceiver.

Audio A National Semiconductor LM4549 AC’97 audio CODEC is used to support the audio features of the VIPER. Audio inputs supported by the LM4549 are stereo line in and a mono microphone input.

The LM4549 provides a stereo line out that can also be amplified by a National Semiconductor LM4880 250mW per channel power amplifier, suitable for driving an 8Ω load. The LM4549 AC’97 codec may be turned off if it is not required. See the section 357HAudio power management, page 358H84, for details.

Connection to the VIPER audio features is via header PL6. See the table below for pin assignments and the section 359HPL6 – Audio connector, page 360H91, for connector and mating connector details.

OUT0 GPIO20

OUT1 GPIO21

OUT2 GPIO22

OUT3 GPIO23

OUT4 GPIO24

OUT5 GPIO25

OUT6 GPIO26

OUT7 GPIO27

The PXA255 GPIO lines must be configured using the registers built into the device to ensure they function correctly. RedBoot configures GPIO20 – GPIO27 as outputs, and sets OUT0 to logic ‘0’, and OUT1 – 7 as logic ‘1’. Eboot cannot set these up as outputs as it only boots the Windows CE image. Once Windows CE is booted you can simply write to a mapped address. For an example of how to do this under Windows CE please see the Windows CE Technical Manual.

Please note:

• IN0-7 cannot be configured as outputs as they are hardwired as input-only by a buffer.

• OUT0-7 cannot be configured as inputs as they are hardwired as output-only by a buffer.

• OUT6-7 are not available if the VIPER is fitted with the TPM IC.

The GPIO lines are programmed using the GPCR0 and the GPSR0 to set the line to ‘0’ or ‘1’ respectively. The registers are 32-bit wide and bits 20-27 relate to GP20-27. To set one of the GP20-27 signals to a logic ‘1’ write a ‘1’ to the corresponding GPSR0 bit. To set one of the GP20-27 signals to a logic ‘0’ write a ‘1’ to the corresponding GPCR0 bit. To monitor the current state of a GP20-27 signal line read from GPLR0. A read-modify-write operation to GPLR0 will not change the state of the GP20-27 signal lines.

VIPER-I/O The VIPER-I/O is a low cost add-on I/O module for the PXA255 board VIPER. The board provides a variety of I/O features without the additional costs of a full PC/104 interface. Please refer to the VIPER-I/O Technical Manual on the Development Kit CD.



USB host interface There are two USB interfaces on the VIPER. These comply with the Universal Serial Bus Specification Rev. 1.0a, supporting data transfer at full-speed (12 Mbit/s) and low-speed (1.5 Mbit/s).

There are four signal lines associated with each USB channel:

• VBUS

• DPOS

• DNEG

• GND

Their arrangement is summarized in the following illustration:

A USB power control switch controls the power and protects against short-circuit conditions. See the section 361HUSB power management, page 362H83, for details of control.

If the USB voltage is short-circuited, or more than 500mA is drawn from either supply, the switch turns off the power supply and automatically protects the device and board. The VBUS power supply is derived from the VIPER +5V supply.

If you require details for the USB bus, or would like to determine whether particular peripherals are available, see 58Hwww.usb.org.

10/100BaseTX Ethernet An SMSC LAN91C111 Ethernet controller provides a single 10/100BaseTX interface. The device provides an embedded PHY and MAC, and complies with the IEEE802.3u 10/100BaseTX and IEEE 802.3x full-duplex flow control specifications. Configuration data and MAC information are stored in an external 93C46 EEPROM.

The 10/100base-T magnetics are located on the VIPER. Connection to the VIPER Ethernet port is via header PL1. See PL1 – 10/100BaseTX Ethernet connector, page 87, for pin assignment, connector and mating connector details.

A second header PL2 provides the activity and link status LED signals. The output lines sink current when switched on therefore the anode of each LED should be connected to pins 1 and 3 of PL2 and the cathode to the appropriate status line.

The Link LED illuminates when a 10 or 100base-T link is made, and the activity LED illuminates when there is Tx or Rx activity.

Ethernet breakout board Eurotech Ltd can provide an Ethernet breakout board with an RJ45 connector to interface to the VIPER Ethernet connectors PL1 and PL2. The Ethernet breakout board features brackets for panel mounting ease. The Ethernet breakout board allows easy connection between the VIPER and a 10/100base-T Ethernet connection:

Please see the PXA255 Developer’s Manual for details of internal interrupts.

COM1 – RS232 interface Uses the full function UART in the PXA255 (FFUART). The port is buffered to RS232 levels with ±15kV ESD protection, and supports full handshaking and modem control signals. The maximum baud rate on this channel is 230.4kb/s (CPU max capability). A factory fit option configures COM1 as TTL Level signals to interface to a modem. Please contact Eurotech Ltd for details. Contact details are provided in 59H60H365HAppendix A – Contacting Eurotech, page 366H101.

COM2 – RS232 interface Uses the Bluetooth UART in the PXA255 (BTUART). The port is buffered to RS232 levels with ±15kV ESD protection, and supports full handshaking and modem control signals. The maximum baud rate on this channel is 921.6kb/s (CPU max capability).

COM3 – RS232 interface Uses the Standard UART in the PXA255 (STUART). The port is buffered to RS232 levels with ±15kV ESD protection, and supports full handshaking and modem control signals. The maximum baud rate on this channel is 230.4kb/s (CPU max capability).

COM4 – RS232 interface Supported on Channel 0 of an external Exar XR16C2850 with 128bytes of Tx and Rx FIFOs, and buffered to RS232 levels with ±15kV ESD protection. The maximum baud rate on this channel is 115.2kb/s. On special request this can be increased to 921.6kb/s. Please contact Eurotech Ltd (see 61H62H63H367HAppendix A – Contacting Eurotech, page 368H101) for details.

COM5 – RS422/485 interface Supported on Channel 1 of an external Exar XR16C2850 with 128bytes of Tx and Rx FIFOs, and buffered to RS422/485 levels with ±15kV ESD protection, to provide support for RS422 (default) and RS485 (jumper selectable) interfaces. The maximum baud rate on this channel is 115.2kb/s. On special request this can be increased to 921.6kb/s. Please contact Eurotech Ltd (see 64H65H66H369HAppendix A – Contacting Eurotech, page 370H101) for details.

RS422 The RS422 interface provides full-duplex communication. The signals available are TXA, TXB, RXA, RXB and Ground. The maximum cable length for an RS422 system is 4000ft (1200m) and supports 1 transmitter and up to 10 receivers.

To enable RS422 operation, 67HLK6 and LK7 should be in position for RS422 full-duplex. LK4 and LK5 should be made if the board is at the end of the network. See 68HRS485/422 configuration – LK4, LK5, LK6 and LK7, page 371H99, for details.

RS485 This is a half-duplex interface that provides combined TX and RX signals. PL4 pin 5 provides TXB/RXB and pin 6 provides TXA/RXA. A ground connection is also required for this interface. The maximum cable length for this interface is the same as RS422 (4000ft), but RS485 supports up to 32 transmitters and receivers on a single network. Only one transmitter should be switched on at a time.

The VIPER uses the RTS signal to control transmission. When this signal is at logic ‘1’ the driver is switched off and data can be received from other devices. When the RTS line is at logic ‘0’ the driver is on. Any data that is transmitted from the VIPER is automatically echoed back to the receiver. This enables the serial communications software to detect that all data has been sent and disable the transmitter when required. 69HLK6 and LK7 should be in position RS485 half-duplex to enable the RS485 interface. See 70HRS485/422 configuration – LK4, LK5, LK6 and LK7, page 372H99, for details. The UART used on the VIPER for COM5 has extended features including auto-RTS control for RS485. This forces the RTS signal to change state (and therefore the direction of the RS485 transceivers) when the last bit of a character has been sent onto the wire. Please refer to the XR16C2850 datasheet on the Development Kit CD.

71HLK4 and LK5 provide parallel line termination resistors and should be made if the VIPER is at the end of the network.

The RS422/485 cable shield MUST be connected between TITAN J1 pin 9 (GND) and the ground connection of the connecting equipment. Failure to do so can result in TITAN RS422/485 transceiver being permanently damaged.

PC/104 interface The VIPER PC/104 interface is emulated from the PXA255 PCMCIA interface to support 8/16 bit ISA bus style signals. As the interface is an emulation the VIPER does not support some PC/104 features. Please refer to the 72HUnsupported PC/104 interface features, page 373H70, for specific details.

Add-on boards can be stacked via the PC/104 interface to enhance the functionality of the VIPER. Eurotech Ltd has an extensive range of PC/104 compliant modules and these can be used to quickly add digital I/O, analogue I/O, serial ports, video capture devices, PC card interfaces, etc.

Accessing the PC/104 interface The ISA bus is based on the x86 architecture and is not normally associated with RISC processors. It is necessary to modify standard drivers to support any third party PC/104 modules.

Any PC/104 add-on board attached to the VIPER shall be available from the PC card memory space socket 1.

VIPER PC/104 interface details

The PC/104 bus signals are compatible with the ISA bus electrical timing definitions.

For details of PC/104 Interrupts please see 374HPC/104 interrupts, page 375H30.

All signals (except interrupts) between the PXA255 and the PC/104 are buffered. The interrupts are connected and processed by CPLD. When the PC/104 bus is not in use all output signals, with the exception of the clock signals, are set to their inactive state.

The VIPER provides +5V to a PC/104 add-on board via the PL11 and PL12 connectors. If a PC/104 add-on board requires a +12V supply, then +12V must be supplied to the VIPER power connector PL16 pin 4. If –12V or –5V are required, these must be supplied directly to the PC/104 add-on board.

The following diagrams show the activity of the VIPER PC/104 interface for 8 and 16-bit I/O and memory space accesses.

Unsupported PC/104 interface features The PC/104 bus features not supported by the VIPER are as follows:

• PC/104 IRQ9, IRQ14 and IRQ15 are not available under Windows CE as all interrupt sources are fully utilized. Therefore the PC104I2 register is not available.

• DMA is not supported on the VIPER’s PC/104 interface. Therefore AEN is set to a constant logical zero.

• Bus Mastering is not supported on the VIPER’s PC/104 interface. Therefore do not connect another VIPER or any other master add-on board to the VIPER PC/104 interface.

• Shared interrupts are not supported on the VIPER’s PC/104 interface. Therefore do not connect more than one add-on board to the same interrupt signal line.

• BALE is set to a constant logical one as the address is valid over the entire bus cycle.

• The PXA255 PCMCIA memory controller does not support 8-bit memory read accesses for common memory space.

I2C The PXA255 I2C interface is brought out to the COMs connector PL4, see 73HPL4 – COMS ports, page 376H89, for connection details.

The I2C unit supports a fast mode operation of 400Kbits/s and a standard mode of 100Kbits/s.

Fast-mode devices are downward-compatible and can communicate with standard-mode devices in a 0 to 100Kbits/s I2C-bus system. As standard-mode devices, however, are not upward compatible, they should not be incorporated in a fast-mode I2C-bus system as they cannot follow the higher transfer rate and unpredictable states will occur.

The I2C unit does not support the hardware general call, 10-bit addressing or CBUS compatibility.

Keep bus loads below 200pF.

TPM The VIPER provides the option for an Atmel AT97SC3201 Trusted Platform Module (TPM), which provides full TCG/TCPA V1.1b compatibility. For further details please contact Eurotech Ltd (see 74H75H377HAppendix A – Contacting Eurotech, page 378H101) for purchasing information.

When the TPM is fitted OUT6 and OUT7 from the general purpose I/O interface are not available.

VIPER Technical Manual Power and power management


Power and power management Power supplies

The VIPER is designed to operate from a single +5V ±5% (4.75V to +5.25V) supply. The power connector PL16 has a +12V connection defined, but is not required for the VIPER under normal operation. It can be used to supply +12V to the PC/104 stack if required. For details of the power connector please see the section 379HPL16 – Power connector, page 380H95.

There are four onboard supply voltages derived from the +5V supply. These are +1.06 to +1.3V (microprocessor Core), +1.8V (CPLD Core) and two +3.3V. One +3.3V supply is dedicated for use with the CompactFLASH interface and +3.3V flat panels.

The +5V supply is monitored automatically on-board; if this supply falls below +4V the board is reset. When the power supply rises above this threshold voltage the board comes out of reset and reboots itself. The power supply monitor ensures that the board does not hang if the supply voltage fails at any point.

If a CompactFLASH and an LCD display are used, ensure the total current requirement on 3.3V does not exceed 900mA! Please check the datasheets of the devices you are using, as this supply is not protected!

Battery backup An onboard Lithium-Ion non-rechargeable battery (CR2032) provides battery backup for the DS1338 RTC, SRAM and optional TPM security feature when there is no +5V supply to the board. An external battery (CR2032 or similar) may also be fitted. To use an external battery see 381HPL16 – Power connector, page 382H95 for connections.

The table below shows the typical and maximum current load on the external battery:

Device load on battery Typical (µA) Maximum (µA)

SRAM 0.2 2

DS1338 RTC with Clock Out Off / On 0.3 / 0.48 0.82/ 1.05

TPM (Optional) 2 4 Supply Supervisor 0.6 1

Total with RTC Clock Out Off 1.1 ( 3.1 with TPM) 3.82 (7.82 with TPM) Total with RTC Clock Out On 1.28 (3.28 with TPM) 4.05 (8.05 with TPM)

An onboard Schottky diode drops 13mV from VBAT at 25°C. At -40°C this may increase to 170mV and at +85°C decrease below 10mV. The SRAM and DS1338 minimum voltages are 1.5V and 1.3V respectively. Reliable operation below these minimum voltages cannot be guaranteed.

The VIPER does not provide a battery charging circuit.



Power management All VIPER power-down features and alteration of PXA255 operating frequency are fully supported under Embedded Linux and VxWorks. Windows CE currently provides no power management support.

To simplify the power consumption estimation of the VIPER, the following sections break down the process as follows:

• 383HProcessor current estimations, page 384H75.

• 385HPower savings, page 386H77.

• 387HExternal peripheral device power estimations, page 388H78.

• 389HPower estimate examples, page 390H79.

The sections immediately following these detail the VIPER features that can be shutdown. See pages 391H81 to 392H84.

The section 393HProcessor current estimations, page 394H75, details current consumption of the VIPER for performance and power saving modes at different clock frequencies. Embedded Linux, Windows CE and VxWorks set up the PXA255 slightly differently:

• Embedded Linux and VxWorks are booted from Redboot, which sets up the PXA255 clock frequency to 100MHz (CCCR=0x121).

• Embedded Linux changes the Redboot setting to 400MHz in performance mode (CCCR=0x161).

• VxWorks makes no changes to the Redboot setting.

• Windows CE sets up the PXA255 clock frequency to 400MHz in power saving mode (CCCR=0x241).

The section 395HPower savings, page 396H77, only apples to Linux and VxWorks power estimation calculations, as Windows CE currently does not provide any power management support. This section shows potential power savings for that can be achieved by shutting down sections of the VIPER that are not required.

The section 397HExternal peripheral device power estimations, page 398H78, provides some examples of power consumption for various supported peripherals, such as LCD displays, CF and USB devices, which may or may not be used for your application.

The section 399HPower estimate examples, page 400H79, provides some examples to help you better understand how to use the information provided within the tables of the 401HProcessor current estimations, 402HPower savings and 403HExternal peripheral device power estimations sections.



Processor current estimations The current values in the tables below are referenced from running the VIPER at 400MHz in performance mode whilst the VIPER is idle.

The positive values (not shown in brackets) are the current saving by running the VIPER at slower frequencies or in power saving mode.

The negative values are the current increases that can be expected whilst the processor is near maximum activity load.

The values shown in brackets show the total current of the VIPER from the 5V supply before taking into account any power savings from shutting down VIPER features or including additional current for external peripherals.

Please refer to the relevant operating system Quickstart Manual to select an alternative operating frequency.

• USB devices: keyboard, memory stick and mouse.

• CompactFLASH socket: CompactFLASH memory or Microdrive.

• Flat panel display: TFT logic + backlight, STN logic + backlight + bias voltage.

The table below gives examples of addition current/power from external peripheral devices:

Power estimate examples

Example 1: VIPER [Linux] asleep (microprocessor in sleep mode and every power saving option enabled) In this case, the power consumed by the respective categories is:

• VIPER current (Linux default) = 334mA ±3mA.

• Power saving = 285mA (all power saving options enabled).

• External peripheral current = 0mA.

Therefore, the estimated VIPER current is:

334mA ±3mA - 285mA + 0mA = 49mA ±3mA (245mW ±15mW).

Example 2: VIPER [Linux] at 200MHz in performance mode + LCD with backlight on In this case, the power consumed by the respective categories is:

• VIPER current while idle = 334mA ±3mA - 7mA = 327mA ±3mA. VIPER current while active = 334mA + 47mA ±20mA = 381mA ±20mA.

• Power saving = 0mA.

• External peripheral current = 650mA (LCD).

Therefore, the estimated VIPER current while idle (min) is:

327mA ±3mA + 650mA = 977mA, ±3mA (4885mW, ±15mW).

and the estimated VIPER current while active (max) is:

381mA ±20mA + 650mA = 1031mA, ±20mA (5155mW, ±100mW).



Example 3: VIPER [Windows CE] at 400MHz in power saving mode + LCD with backlight on + 64MB FlashDio™ USB memory stick

In this case, the power consumed by the respective categories is:

• VIPER current (Windows CE default) while idle = 334mA ±3mA - 9mA = 325mA ±3mA. VIPER current (Windows CE default) while active = 334mA + 99mA ±20mA = 433mA ±20mA.

• Power saving = 0mA.

• External peripheral current (USB memory stick quiescent) = 650mA (LCD) + 75mA = 725mA. External peripheral current (USB memory stick read) = 650mA (LCD) + 121mA = 771mA

Therefore, the estimated VIPER current while idle (min) is:

325mA ±3mA + 725mA = 1050mA, ±3mA (5250mW, ±15mW).

and the estimated VIPER current while active and reading from USB memory stick (max) is:

433mA ±20mA + 771mA = 1204mA, ±20mA (6020mW, ±100mW) .



Processor power management The power manager in the PXA255 offers the ability to disable the clocks to the different internal peripherals. By default, all clocks are enabled after reset. To reduce power consumption disable the clocks for any unused peripherals.

The clock speed of the processor core, PXbus (the internal bus connecting the microprocessor core and the other blocks of the PXA255), LCD and SDRAM can also be changed to achieve a balance between performance and power consumption. For more details on the internal power manager please see the PXA255 Developer’s Manual on the Development Kit CD.

To adjust the core voltage, write the values shown in the following table to the LTC1659 DAC. When changing the core voltage it is important to ensure that the internal CPU clock is set to the correct voltage range. The CPU core supply must be set to a defined range for a particular clock. Please refer to the LTC1659 datasheet, Clocks and Power Manager section in the PXA255 Applications Processors Developer's Manual and Power Consumption Specifications section in the PXA255 Processor Electrical, Mechanical and Thermal Specification on the Development Kit CD.

DAC Data Hex value CPU core voltage Comment

0x000 1.65V Not recommended to set the VCORE above 1.3V as the power consumption will increase for no performance benefit.

0x325 1.29V Typical VCORE for peak voltage range at 400MHz operation.

Maximum VCORE for medium voltage range at 200MHz operation.

0xDE5 1.1V Typical VCORE for high voltage range at 300MHz operation.

0xFFF 1.06V Typical VCORE for low voltage and medium voltage range, suitable for 100MHz to 200MHz operation.

When the microprocessor is in sleep mode, the CPU core voltage is shutdown.

When changing between CPU core voltages it is important to adjust the DAC Data in steps of no greater than 0x100 at a time.



To communicate with the VCORE DAC, use the following pins to emulate the LTC1659 interface:

Before putting the PXA255 into sleep mode, ensure the R_DIS bit in the ICR register is set to ‘1’. The PXA255 is not designed to interface to 8-bit peripherals, so only the least significant byte from the word contains the data.

UART power management COM4 and COM5 are generated from an external Exar XR16C2850 DUART. This device supports a sleep mode. By enabling this feature the DUART enters sleep mode when there are no interrupts pending. Please see the XR16C2850 datasheet on the Development Kit CD for information on enabling the sleep mode.

GPIO12 on the PXA255 can be used to power down the RS232 transceivers on COM1, 2, 3 and 4. The following table shows the affect of GPIO12 on the RS232 transceivers:

GPIO12 Operation status Transmitters Receivers

0 Normal operation Active Active

1 Shutdown High-Z High-Z

Placing the XR16C2850 and the RS232 transceivers into low power mode can reduce the power consumption of the VIPER up to 25mA ±3mA (125mW ±15mW).

CompactFLASH power management The power supply to the CompactFLASH interface is controlled via software, and supports hot swap card insertion and CompactFLASH power down states. GPIO82 on the PXA255 is used to control the power supply. Setting this line to logic ‘0’ switches off power to the CompactFLASH interface.

Ethernet power management The network interface supports a power down mode, which shuts down the internal MAC and PHY blocks of the network controller. Placing the controller into low power mode can reduce the power consumption of the VIPER by up to108mA ±3mA (540mW ±15mW). To power down the PHY write ‘1’ to the power down bit in the MII PHY Register 0, Control Register. To power down the MAC write ‘1’ to the EPH PowerEN bit in the Bank 1, Configuration Register. See the LAN91C111 datasheet contained on the Development Kit CD for further details.

USB power management The USB Host controller supports a USB suspend state. Placing the controller into the USB suspend state can reduce the power consumption of the VIPER by up to 37mA ±3mA (185mW ±15mW). To suspend the USB, the software must write to the relevant bits in the HcControl Register (81h). Please see the ISP1160 datasheet contained on the Development Kit CD.

To wake the USB Host Controller from suspend, pulse GPIO13 high.

VL

VL



Audio power management The audio interface supports the AC’97 low power modes. Shutting down the digital and analogue interfaces can reduce consumption by up to 38mA ±3mA (190mW ±15mW).

To shut down the AC’97 Codec, the software must write to the relevant bits in the Powerdown Control / Status Register (26h). Please see the LM4549 datasheet contained on the Development Kit CD.

TPM If the VIPER has the TPM option the VIPER consumes a further 3.5mA (17.5mW) while the TPM IC is idle, and 17mA (85mW) while the TPM IC is operating. This device cannot be shutdown.

Wake up events When the PXA255 processor is placed into sleep mode, two sources can be used to wake the processor.

Status LEDs There is a single status LED on the VIPER, which indicates FLASH access to the bootloader FLASH or the main FLASH memory/silicon disk.



Jumpers There are seven user selectable jumpers on the VIPER. Their use is explained below.

Default settings The default positions of the jumpers are shown below. Jumper functions described in silkscreen on the board are shown in blue.

Reset – LK1 on JP3 A momentary switch (push to make) may be connected to LK1. When pressed the board goes into a full hardware reset. When the switch is released (open circuit) the board reboots.

Reserved – LK2 on JP3 This jumper is reserved for factory use only. Please do not fit LK2 across JP3 pins 3 and 4.

User configurable jumper 1 – LK3 on JP3 This jumper can be used by an application program to signify a configuration setting.

LK3 Description

GPIO7 read as ‘0’.

GPIO7 read as ‘1’.

The USER_CONFIG1 (GPIO7) signal on LK3 may be used to wake the VIPER from sleep. One way of doing this is to connect a momentary push to make switch to LK3.

When mounting the VIPER use only M3 (metric) or 4-40 (imperial) screws. The mounting pad is 6.35mm, 0.25” and the hole is 3.175mm, 0.125”, so ensure any washers fitted are smaller than the pad.

Using oversized screws and washers, or tooth locking washers, can cause short circuits and over-voltage conditions.

We recommend that you use a Loctite screw thread lock or a similar product over tooth locking washers.
